Abstract

The funeral they were constituting in the the Former Regime society something more than a farewell to the deceased and like that it was reflected in the rite that he was accompanying on the death of any person up to his burial. In this spirit the social military group has his own characteristics at the moment of putting into practice the questions that were accompanying the death of one of his members. The differentiation is established when these regulate by means of dispositions of military character, fundamentally the Ordinances, where the funereal honors join as one more aspect of the regime of the Troops. In the last third of the 18th century, the King Carlos III establishes a Royal Ordinances that gather the previous procedure and uses and that will be in use during all his reign and that of his successors. The funereal honors that in them are fixed will be those who accompany the Kings and military men who lived through the crisis of the Former Regime.
